Ikrimah says that once I saw a man who entered the mosque and started praying while standing; he would say the takbeer while raising his head, bowing, and rising from the two rak'ahs.

Beware! The deeds of Paradise are as hard as a hill, and the deeds of Hell are as easy as a soft bow.

Whoever swallows his anger for the sake of Allah, Allah will fill his heart with faith."
